Review Notes: The construction is painstakingly crafted, but to my surprise, the draw was perfect... unlike some of the others in this firmly-wound family. It burns at a low temperature, at a medium speed, and produces a normal ash. I used a punch cut which turned out ideal. This cigar did however have one unique feature. Perhaps it was the fact that I was wearing comfortable wool pants, or maybe that my day was not strange enough at that point, but this cigar decided that my crotch was Dresden in '45. At the 1/2 way mark, it began sending burning ash particles into my lap, one at a time. Even when I held the cigar away, and over the ashtray, the small smoldering incindiaries would pop off and gently tumble towards the fly of my pants. I can understand one or two sparks, but seven or eight? The taste was great, but I was a bit distracted by the air-raid on my goods. I will have this cigar again soon, because I think that the bombing campaign was a fluke. Either way, I recommend it.
